Question Will Redmi K40S be compatible with the third-party ROMs available here? - Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40

Xiaomi recently announced the Redmi K40S, an upgraded version based on the K40. K40S has improved charging speed, OIS and VC cooling system, but the rest is the same. Will Redmi K40S be compatible with the third-party ROMs available here? Has anyone tested this yet?

I would not bet on it working out of the box. Manufacturers make ever so subtle changes between revisions.

I dont think it can work, first of all, redmi k40s has a different internal codename so you the rom installation will failed at device checking .-. CMIIW
and Redmi K40S will have a global name Poco F4 (while Redmi K40 is Poco F3) so its a different phone.

Do not update your miui 9 after 9.5.17 if you wish to be on the safer side.
As long as you stay below miui 9 9.5.17 (& 8.7.5 in case of miui 10) you're safe and can change roms without any problem.

No, your device is whyred. You have a Snapdragon 636; Vince has Snapdragon 625. You have dual cameras, Vince is single camera.
If you install a ROM meant for a different device, you will have a nice new brick. Please, use only whyred ROMs on your device.
